Help with New Player Guide

[tenduil]

I recently have been trying to bring two people IRL to UOSA that have never played UO. I am not able to sit and show them how to play at a computer that can play UO (I'm at work/class then family stuff) and therefore have been looking for a new player guide that covers the absolute basics:
Vendor buy/sell, how to open doors, how to auto run, etc
The current guides in the Guides section (even the 'new player' ones) really only target players that have played before.

This may sound dumb as its a pretty easy game to figure out but people have a short attention span. Without a easy way to figure everything out in 5 minutes they'll move on or back to their other game.

Therefore either does anybody know of a true new player guide somewhere or is willing to help me type one up?

This is the most comprehensive guide we have for Beginning Players:
http://wiki.uosecondage.com/?title=Beginners_Guide

It's taken from an Stratics guide. As it's on our wiki you are most welcome to add to it.

I understand that the biggest barrier to new players is the interface itself. It would be great to have a guide to the client covering topics such as "How do I move?", "How do I attack?"

There are a couple links to other interface guides here:

One is very post era but has a lot of great pictures that could be bagged.

Thanks!!

Thanks Derrick. The New Player guide is really detailed and great but doesn't cover the basics. That other thread has some neat things though that I can incorporate.

I'll type something up and post it in the guides section tomorrow. I'm hoping to persuade some new ppl.
